Beautiful Autograph Inscription from the Author to the writer Michel Suffran, his wife and his son.
"A tribute to the god-Rhone and the God of Christians, a mixture of violence, tolerance and love, this magnificent and powerful Brutus is entirely steeped in an exemplary faith: that of those who do not deny themselves"
This is an epic set in the time of Christian martyrs. The novel takes place near the Rhone and in the Camargue, about 120 years after the founding of Lyon.
"A mixture of cruelties and acts of fraternity, a powerful and generous narrative like its author, Brutus is vintage Clavel, a story of men... full of brave souls and infamous scoundrels, and which rolls tumultuously like the king-river that inspired it."
